Since its first bench-top gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer (GC/MS) was sold in 1979, Shimadzu has been a leader in design innovations, such as our front access ion source, high efficiency ion optics, 20,000 u/second scan speed, and post-quadrupole focusing lenses.

Together, these innovations provide unparalleled instrument performance and simplified operation and maintenance. With the addition of the GCMS-TQ8040 triple quadrupole GC-MS/MS, Shimadzu offers a comprehensive series of GC/MS and GC-MS/MS instruments for every application.

Based on the UFMS (Ultra-Fast Mass Spectrometry) features and flexibility of the systems, a full range of solutions for multidimensional analysis, including Comprehensive GC (GCxGC) as well as MDGC is possible as well.
